120,000 on my 01. I bought it last may with 106,000. The 90,000 service done at 96k. Have not had any issues. My 92 LS 400 had 267,000 when it was wrecked. My 95 only had 134,400 on it was hit last May. I purchased that one back on 2007 with only 78,000. These cars are amazing, and almost bullet proof with regular maintenance.

I just purchased a 2001 LS430 last week with 79,312 miles on it. One owner car, previous owner an elderly couple, and I am very lucky that they had it serviced regularly and on schedule by Lexus. I was given all the maintenance history and its in immaculate condition on the inside with a few dings on the exterior, but nothing major.

2002 LS430 UL
102000 mi
Only problems so far is that the tilt wheel is acting up and the cd changer has had it. Looks like it needs the 90k service done so thats next.

I have certified LS 430. I bought it with 50,000 miles 2 1/2 yrs ago. So far I have only bought tires and have had the driver's seat padding redone (warranty). It needs it again, but dealer will not repeat. My advisor said Lexus did it as good will, but no more. Very painful to drive after about 45 minutes, no matter what position I put the seat in. This is Lexus #4. I planned on keeping the car forever, but I am now rethinking if I can't solve this problem. The company that did the padding is coming to the house to do it again, about $165. Lexus wants about $240 for a new cushion, and then the installation is another 100. Love the car except for seat problem. Love my dealer and service people.

Forgot - current miles about 76,600. Love the car except for the seating problem. One thing I did was buy 2 extra years of certification because I will use the years way before the miles. But the real decision will be when I am due for the 90,000 mile services - about $2200. I will assess at that time. problem is that the preowned are so costly now I may have to leave Lexus and get something else or go to an ES or RX or maybe a hybrid.

All we see is low miles. I'd like to see someone with 300,000+ miles.
